Sourcing Monthly February 2022

Conclusion: This month, discussions regarding partner-led growth through alliances and acquisitions have been prominent. Being selective with these types of relationships can allow for increased access to clients, service providers, and an expanded skills base. However, the rapid deployment of new resources through partnerships and acquisitions can add complexities, reduce visibility and increase security risks when consolidating internal business processes, or products and services. Challenges associated with conflicts and vulnerabilities when bringing organisations together, in any way, must be addressed with ongoing skills growth, as well as resources and management structures to support complex and changing environments.
